This wikispace is for Ms. Palombo's 8th grade Language Arts class. The information and links on this wiki will aid you in your quest for understanding and creating sentence diagrams. We will be using our content knowledge that we have acquired in grammar classes throughout the year and apply that information to this process of sentence diagramming. For those of you who are visual learners, I truly believe you will enjoy this process. Others of you who may have struggled with grammar, diagramming helps put into perspective how words work together.
